HEARTLESS NIGHT
(Craig Bickhardt / Michael Bonagura)
Baillie & The Boys - 1987
Drivin' down this dark deserted highway
Feelin' as wrong as the road is long
I'm sorry for the words that came between us
I pray my darkest hour leads to the dawn
Heartless night with a blue moon risin'
I turned away from the one I love
Heartless night, oh, I feel like dyin'
Will you take me back when the mornin' comes
A cold and starless sky just hangs above me
The warmth of you is burnin' in my mind
I need to hold you close or I'll go crazy
Without you there's an emptiness inside
Heartless night with a blue moon risin'
I turned away from the one I love
Heartless night, oh, I feel like dyin'
Will you take me back when the mornin' comes
Heartless night, heartless night
If I could only see your arms
Reaching out for me
There'd be a light in this heartless night
Heartless night with a blue moon risin'
I turned away from the one I love
Heartless night, oh, I feel like dyin'
Will you take me back when the mornin' comes
Heartless night, heartless night
